Visa has created a novelty app to help parents determine how much money the Tooth Fairy should leave their children for a lost tooth.
But not even the Tooth Fairy is immune to inflation. This year, kids found an average of $3 under their pillows after losing a tooth. That's a 15% increase from 2011, according to a recent Visa survey.
To find the "going rate" for a tooth, parents simply punch in a few details, such as their age, gender, home state, income, education levels and salary. The app will automatically calculate how much money the Tooth Fairy is leaving in similar households.
